Component Encoder

Antrica specialises in supplying markets worldwide with the latest in video over IP technology including component encoders and decoders using VGA Dongles. Over the last 15 years, we’ve become an industry-leading manufacturer, with our products being known for their reliability, integration, compatibility and performance.

A Video Graphics Array (VGA) connector is a three-row 15-pin DE-15 connector. The 15-pin VGA connector has been provided on many video cards, computer monitors, laptop computers, projectors and high-definition television sets. On laptops, computers and other small devices, a mini-VGA port has sometimes been used in place of the full-sized VGA connector.

Component Video is a 3-cable Coax system RGB which can be converted using a VGA to component dongle. The component can carry 1080P video in an analogue format and is rarely used now. Many devices still include VGA connectors, although VGA generally coexisted with DVI as well as the newer and more compact HDMI and DisplayPort interface connectors.

VGA is still commonly requested as in older laptops and computers, it is one of the most commonly used outputs. As a result, we supply a range of encoders to be able to encode & decode this type of connection. We suggest using active VGA to HDMI converters which are cheap, effective and allow the use of an HDMI encoder.

frequently asked questions

The ANT-3xxxx range is fully ONVIF Profile S & G Compliant.

 

A fully ONVIF encoder will 100% work as ONVIF guarantees compatibility (ANT-3XXXX range). However, if you need a ‘view only’ stream and can live without ONVIF discovery then we have the ANT-2XXX range which can sometimes integrate. We can provide a public IP stream for you to test if you need.

Yes, we do for larger projects. We also offer a remote way of testing the stream’s integration.

Any H.265 option will be suitable.

The ANT-36100, as it has alarm/serial data controls, as well as PoE, and is a more industrial-type decoder.

Yes. Providing you have anti-static handling procedures in place, these can be used in any applications where it can be ‘housed’.

This is due to the fact we use low bit rates and compression, so we need at least 1-2 frames for encoding. Decoders need buffering to work, so most latency is in the decoder end.

Yes and no. Any decoding and re-encoding potentially reduces the quality, but using sufficiently high bit rates will allow the quality to look as good as the original.

Yes, these are intended to be low-latency wireless links with Video in and Video out.

Some of our decoders don’t have HD-SDI as an output. These converters offer a solution to have an HD-SDI output when required.

ANTRICA 'GOES GREEN' - SINGLE USE PLASTIC ZERO "usage" POLICY

Antrica have taken on the challenge of reducing to zero all single use plastic within its packaging of Encoders and Decoders by the end of 2020. We are also striving to provide paperless shipments wherever possible.

Together we can make the world better!
